Chapter Two: Not Even A Thousand Skies Heartbroken as he was Nicolas came back to the palace. He only wanted to go to bed and shut himself in the bedroom for a while. The sight of his grandma who he knew loved him closing the door at him and her throwing him out of the house as a child she couldn't stop inviting him in. "Ah" a female voice made him raise his eyes from the ground he had been looking at. Mury. Edward's aunt was here and she smiled at him as if she wasn't the person who packed all that was hers and left when he and Edward got engaged. "Las" she easily nicknamed him without even having a proper conversation with him yet. Because of the respect that he had been taught to have from his house he had to smile back and bow to his soon to be aunt in-law. Yes he had slipped up time to time with it but he never really disrespected anyone intentionally. The person had to have done something that warranted him to be rude to them. "Edward did not tell me you would visit

Chapter Four: I Should Have Known Nicolas brushed his stomach. After the dream he had he was second guessing himself. The child inside of him yes was stopping him from doing a lot of things that he wanted to do. But the fact stood. He had made this child. He made this child with Edward without being forced or being trapped into it. Because of the need he felt for Edward. What if him getting rid of their first child broke their relationship? Or worse broke Edward himself? Nicolas would not be able to live with that. So maybe he could try. "Your medicine" a maid bowed at him with the medicine the doctor had told him to take daily. He took the vile of tasteless medication. He sometimes spit it out because of how disgusting it felt in his mouth so what he came up with to deal with this was to distract himself with other things to see. Today it would be the flowers in the garden. He heard voices immediately as he neared it though. Two female voices that he knew. And one ma

Chapter Seven: We Are Going Edward massaging Nicolas' feet which he said he had been told that this was what he was supposed to do to help Nicolas through the pregnancy. "My feet don't even hurt" Nicolas told him. Edward was stubborn as always. "That does not mean they won't so I will need my practice. Let me learn." Nicolas sighed softly not about to argue with Edward about this. "Are you sure you are okay?" Edward asked again for what Nicolas could say was for the millionth time that day. He had already answered him. With the say yes and mhm he was giving him now. "I am not convinced" Nicolas dropped his head on the bed. "I have a lot in my mind." "Mind telling me?" Nicolas shook his head. "You are not good at listening and I am not good at talking so that is that. " "But we have time to change do we not? We have all the time in the world. To understand each other for who we really are." "But do I have the patience for that?" Edward stopped the massage. Stari

* * *Chapter Nine: Like I Said Edward found Nicolas in a shelter far away from the palace close to the edge of the kingdom. He came in disguise as to not alert Nicolas of his presence and as a try to befriend his run away fiance to somehow find out his reasons for leaving. "May I say something?" Hugo was one to say a whole lot so even if Edward didn't give him permission he knew he would hear a comment of what the accounted really felt about things. "Say it" he said as he fixed the fake mustache he had made sure to include in his disguise. Hugo cleared his throat. "You are here to do what exactly? Your highness you have found your fiance but you still want to play games with him instead of dragging him by the hand and taking him home?" Edward gave him a sharp look. "I cannot drag him along. Hugo if I haven't been more plain to you before let me be very clear right now. Nicolas is not bound by anything. He is free to do what he wants. I will not force him into things."
